Re: OPEL with FLAK 38..,The SKID is DONE !

Very very cool Luiz. I saw this in I believe the same book you are using for ref and liked it then. I'm loving it even more seeing you bring it to life. Are you making resin copies to sell?
James
 
Re: OPEL with FLAK 38..,The SKID is DONE !

Are the resin copies for yourself or for a company?

Regards,
 
Re: OPEL with FLAK 38..,The SKID is DONE !

Dear James and Saul.

...the resin copy is just for myself...I think that over time the skid made ​​from plastic will warp...ok/

I can send copies to you...adresses please (PM) :pilot


Best regards!
